Wolverhampton

Well-bred sort shaped very well on qualifying run when fourth over 6f here and improved to get the better of Akirra (by ¾ length) at Southwell last time. Faces a sharper 5f here but still likely to prove better than his current mark.

Well backed and typically showed plenty of speed when outgunned by Comic Strip at Southwell (4 lb better off with that rival here). Comfortably made the most of a good opportunity when winning a C&D novice last time and another bold showing expected back in a nursery.

Starspangledbanner filly is progressing and she settling better dropped to the minimum trip when winning a 6-runner novice at Lingfield (AW) last month. Could be further improvement to come.

Off the mark in a 4-runner maiden over 6f at Hamilton penultimate start but easy to back when disappointing over the same C&D on nursery debut in September. Since left Karl Burke and has a bit to find on first start for new yard.

Rewarded for his consistency when landing a 5f nursery at Windsor in August. Some mitigation for subsequent below form efforts (since left Paul Attwater) and not ruled for yard who had a winner with a stable switcher at this track recently.

Got back on track in a lower grade when close second over C&D earlier this month. Not disgraced at Lingfield latest but looks vulnerable from 2 lb out of the handicap in a better race.
